MARK KINSELLA,Current Domestic Club,Aston Villa Football Club
Mark Kinsella has a job to do - fill the gap left by Roy Keane. And with his fellow international colleague, Matt Holland, they both proved just why they are club captains, with their outstanding displays in the centre of midfield in the World Cup Finals 2002.
The Irish midfielder could have chosen to move to a number of clubs when Charlton were relegated from the top flight in 1998/99, but his decision to stay loyal was a decision both Charlton and their fans will never be able to repay to him.
However in the season beginning 02-03', Charlton Boss made it clear to Kinsella that he could no longer be guaranteed first Football. Mark joined Aston Villa on 23 August 2002, for a fee of GBP£275,000.00, with personal terms unknown.
